Heat wave continues in midwest

The middle of the nation is absolutely roasting right now ... suffering for weeks of temperatures in the 90s and 100s.

I couldn't believe the 7-day forecast for Fort Smith, AR when I checked it ... looking something more like you would see for Phoenix.

Temperatures everyday from 105 to 110 degrees!

We are hot here in Denver too ... but it is all relative. Those in the Kansas, Oklahoma and Texas would be glad to trade our weather. But by Denver standards, this is hot! Today is day 17 with 90 degrees or higher temps. If we hit 90 again tomorrow, it will tie the second longest streak of 90s on record!
